alright guys ive decided to ditch the turbo so last night i took it off along with the manifold, and took the injectors out since they will not be needed anymore








but for some reason i decided not to go without boost so these items came in the mail the past few days
Hahn log manifold (thanks pj) and Tial 38mm wastegate




down pipe material


AEM 30-3000 meth kit



More to come later.. lol

well we ran into a snag yesterday the turbo is too big for the manifold lol the turbo actually hits the wastegate flange so i have a new manifold on the way.. we got the meth kit bolted up, injectors installed, and also 1/2 of my new suspension on (roadmagnets powdercoated dark blue and dspecs) on to some pics and if anyone is interested in the turbo manifold pm me..


springs very close to paint color


old turbo vs new turbo



meth kit

decided to mount the injector in the port on the throttle body that wasnt being used




and the turbo hitting the flange like i was talking about

Wow that is crazy, I guess it is a good thing you got my setup. That will be nice if you get a new set though and then you can sell them.

wow that's really bad. i guess they didn't like the sitting around all the time. they liked the abuse. those new springs looks awesome tho.
